DTEM VO: 350 members
VO managers: D. Zilaskos, M. Dimou, S. Traylen
PROs:
1. It allows a common VO for use in our international task. This is
particularly important for the investigation of issues, particularly for
issues which are dependent on certain configurations, not localized to
one site or country. Tests using the dteam VO makes it possible to test
how widespread a problem is likely to be. Typically anyone who does not
have an account on any other VO needs it for any
testing or investigations which are not localized to their sites or
country. It would seem appropriate that such work is carried out using
something like the dteam VO rather than an application VO anyway.
It is important for debugging and monitoring of services. If developers
cannot be part of a similar VO, operational support may become a lot
harder.
2. Some members of the SVG use the dteam VO exclusively for their work,
not just SVG work but all their development and testing work.
CONs:
1. A national/regional catch-all VO could suffice
2. Evidence of DTEAM usage? Very low in terms of used resources, 241,892 jobs amounting 1784 hours CPUtime since May. November: 38,450 jobs amounting just 73 hours.
